Blog on the Run

Here is an experiment to see how good the WordPress app on my iPhone works to write and post a blog post in a time-efficient manner. We’ll see. For some reason my WordPress app likes to crash, and so it has not been as cool as I hoped it would be. Plus, I am on my lunch break from work, and I went out to eat actually. Yay! I get tired of being diligent and always packing my lunch. I try so hard to be a good budgeter but life is meant to be lived and enjoyed, and honestly sometimes you just need to go out to eat.

So, in honor of where’s Waldo, where am I?  Here is a pop quiz. (See if you pass).
Where is Julie???
A. Taco Bell
B. Chick-fil-a at a food court
C. Little Asian place down the street from my office
D. None of the above

Alright, I will answer the quiz at the end but gotta watch my time. So, yesterday I was thinking about how I really missed being a kid.  Life can get mundane, ok that is true. I was thinking about that great cartoon The Jetsons.  I want a dog named Astro. And a robot maid- seriously that is cool!  In all of our technological  progress, we are not flying around in cars yet. That would be interesting. Yay, deep thoughts. 🙂

I remember when I was a kid how exciting it was to watch Saturday morning cartoons.  I would wake up super early on Saturday mornings just to watch cartoons.  We had cable when I was little, and I thought the Cartoon Network was awesome.  Here is a question for anyone reading this- what was your favorite cartoon growing up? Mine was Scooby Doo, but The Jetsons were cool, too.

The other thing I have been missing was when I was a kid and my family would always go to this amusement park in Iowa every summer and have the best time. We would ride roller coasters and go on bumper cars and have a blast. At the end of the day we would always end up in the Bingo parlor (that sold fudge) and we would camp out and play Bingo.  It was great.  Oh, my family would always play against each other in those fun horse race games (the kind where you roll mini-golf type balls into holes in order to move your horse or where you shoot a water gun into the clown’s mouth to increase and pop a balloon, which moves your horse.  Skee-ball was fun, too.  I lost tons of money playing Skee-ball.  I miss that!

Ok, well gotta go. Answer to the pop quiz: A. Taco Bell (It would have been B. Chick-fil-a, but I changed my mind at the last minute.  Also, the little Asian place is closed for maintenance for 1-3 weeks, from what the sign on their door said yesterday.

P.S. Alright, I am really trying to be better with my grammar and actually edit my writing these days…and I couldn’t resist going back and also adding some cute pics of The Jetsons.  Now, I really want to watch that classic cartoon.  Gotta love old school, it is still cool! 🙂
